teacher, unionist, newbie nanna
Lutrawita always home and in my heart
Outraged but optimistic
Living and working on Gundungurrah and Dharug land, beneath the sky and by the waterways

- Reposted by Catherine DeeAgain @abcnewsbot.bsky.social reports “unprecedented” heatwave with no mention of #ClimateChange What’s causing extreme & frequent HEATWAVE? How come the government’s own National Climate Risk accepts the science but continues to fuel HEATWAVE? How bad must it get? Who pays for the consequences?

- This is Fairy Falls, just one of many in my 'hood. Aptly named as it's normally the most delicate. Clearly my doggo hasn't caught up with the impacts of the sheer volume of water currently barreling through the mountains at the moment. Remind you of anyone?

- Reposted by Catherine DeeThe ICE agent who shot Marimar Martinez in Chicago tried to goad her out of her car. He said “do something b*tch” and shot her 5 times. The ICE agent who shot Nicole Renee Good did the same thing. Stood right in front of her vehicle and yelled “f*cking bitch”. They hate women & it shows.
- Super proud to be part of this group of wild, wonderful, committed women.
